<i>Tex19.1</i> Restricts LINE-1 Mobilisation in Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Mobilisation of retrotransposons to new genomic locations is a significant driver of mammalian genome evolution. In humans, retrotransposon mobilisation is mediated primarily by proteins encoded by LINE-1 (L1) retrotransposons, which mobilise in pluripotent cells early in development. Here we show that TEX19.1, which is induced by developmentally programmed DNA hypomethylation, can directly interact with the L1-encoded protein L1-ORF1p, stimulate its polyubiquitylation and degradation, and restrict L1 mobilisation. We also show that TEX19.1 likely acts, at least in part, through promoting the activity of the E3 ubiquitin ligase UBR2 towards L1-ORF1p. Moreover, we show that loss of Tex19.1 increases L1-ORF1p levels and mobilisation of L1 reporters in pluripotent mouse embryonic stem cells implying that Tex19.1 prevents new retrotransposition-mediated mutations from arising in the germline genome. These data show that post-translational regulation of L1 retrotransposons plays a key role in maintaining trans-generational genome stability in the epigenetically dynamic developing mammalian germline.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
